As a child I grew up having the love and desire of being a musician and always dreamt about myself on stage and offering music that will give entertainment and help to the people
But as I grew up I found that I developed the desire of being famous
I wanted to be famous and I tried and tried my part, writing cool quotes, looking for someone to spot me but nothing helped
Please give me advice on fame

Everybody at one point in there lifes has thought about how it would feel like to be rich and famous...myself included.
But writing "Cool Quotes" isn't really anything to be famous about.
If you want to achieve fame for being a musician then you could try recording your music and uploading it to YouTube or other music providing services. Also promote yourself via social media like Twitter and try emailing or calling local venues to see if they are interested in hiring you to do a show or two.
Promoting and advertising yourself is very very important if you want to be famous.

Writing/recording your own music and then promoting that as hard as you can (with the help of YouTube etc) sounds like a good start to me!

Getting noticed will be hard, unless you got connections/friends.

YouTube is good, but only if you know how to get viewers to come to you. You can't just upload a video and wait for people to subscribe.
If you share your YT artwork on Facebook, and if you got a ton of friends, chances are that a part of them might click on the video you shared.
Friends IRL is a good place to start, since they'd be intrigued by your creations the most.
Same applies with Twitter, etc.

I don't think this is the correct place to ask this because as far as I know nobody on here is famous - I mean I could be wrong but if I am right then the advice everyone gives can only be an estimate at best.

This is the best one if you were to start on YouTube or anything, especially if you want to make music. If you have a Facebook it is easy enough to share your content on there and most people who are friends with you do take a look at it. Then also on Facebook there are a lot of pages for "beginner Youtubers", I've seen this when one of my classmates was attempted to start a Youtube Channel and she did get quite a few subscribers from self-promoing and then getting promoted by slightly bigger channels in our same area but she soon abandoned the want and moved onto something else.

Yep, I definitely agree with the 2 above posters; first sharing your work with friends, and then they care share with their friends, etc etc... Just make sure that the ball keeps rolling :)

I find this funny because I developed the completely opposite as a musician. I wanted to be famous when I was younger but I grew up to just want to sing no matter if I'm famous or not lol.
But here's my advice as a fellow musician..
As a musician, get yourself out there. The internet is a great place to start however it isn't the only thing you should approach as a musician. Find talent competitions around where you live, find gigs, stuff like that. That's a great way to get noticed and get more people to follow your work.

Social media and the internet in general is a great medium for reaching people and advertising yourself. Try to develop a niche identity and work out what it is that you offer, and what you want to be known for. Then try to work on getting the word out. The internet is good, but don't limit yourself to it: distributing flyers and getting involved with the local music community is great too!
